What To Do When Someone Dies At Home

If a loved one passes away at home unexpectedly, call 999 immediately for police and ambulance support. For expected deaths, the attending doctor will typically issue a medical certificate stating the cause of death. This certificate is essential before funeral arrangements can begin and ensures the process proceeds smoothly and legally.

When And How To Obtain A Death Certificate

Whether the death occurs at home, in a hospital, hospice, or care facility, a medical certificate must be issued before the death can be registered. This document officially confirms the passing and the cause, allowing the family to begin making funeral arrangements and fulfilling legal obligations such as registering the death.

Choosing An Independent Funeral Director

Independent funeral directors offer personal, compassionate care and are usually run by small, family-led teams. Unlike corporate chains, we focus on tailored service and local expertise. Choosing an independent funeral director ensures your loved one is cared for with dignity and that you receive guidance throughout every step of the funeral planning process.

How To Register A Death And What Happens Next

Registering a death is one of the first practical steps after a loss. Once registered, you’ll receive essential documentation to plan the funeral, notify government departments, and manage the deceased’s estate. This process is necessary and provides legal confirmation of death, helping to begin the path forward for families.
